Unsuspecting boy. Big-hearted girl. Small-minded town. Invincible
summer. Summer, 1955. Calls for equality are sweeping America, but
sixteen-year-old Ethan Harper is about to discover just how deep
the roots of racism run. When mixed-race Ethan is sent to stay with
his white uncle and aunt in Ellison, Alabama, he soon discovers
that the only thing smaller than the town itself are the minds of
its inhabitants. Except for Juniper Jones - resident artist,
oddball and self-proclaimed free spirit. Ignoring the tide of
prejudice and disapproval that follows Ethan, Juniper enlists him
as her sidekick in her quest for an unforgettable summer. Armed
with two bikes and an unlimited supply of root beer floats, the
pair set out to find their place in a town that's set on rejecting
them. Along the way, they will find hope, friendship - and maybe
something more . . .
